Good EJ?

[TussAgee11]

Over 30 League - Actually known to be a pretty level headed league (compared to the stories I read on here of other adult league games). Mostly good guys just having a good time on a Sunday morning away from the wives and kids.

R1, 0 out, fly ball to right, and they end up doubling off an idiot R1.

After a pause following my initial call (which was a no doubt about it 100%) R1 says turns to me, located about 5 feet inside the cut-out, as he is walking back to 1st base dugout.

former R1: He was off the base (calmly)
Me: I had him on the base
former R1: He was off the base
(here's where I may have erred, I thought perhaps he didn't hear me the first time: but perhaps repeating the same thing baited him a bit)
Me: No, I had him on the base (now starting to walk back to A)
former R1, at top of his lungs, viciously, ready to pop a vain, as loud as possible, looking right at me, now somewhere between 5 and 10 feet away (and when I say screaming, I mean, SCREAMING): HE WAS OFF THE BAG!

Bam, gone.

Did I jump the gun? Any more info you all would like to help determine if I did? Anything I could have done to prevent it? If no EJ, what would you done instead?

In hindsight, I kind of wish I had gotten in one parting shot at him before I dumped him, but for my own perverse sense of humor - not because it was the right thing to do as an umpire.

I thought it was a good EJ, just wanted some thoughts.
